I recall her throwing blistering no-look passes on the money the last time I saw her in person yet her pull-up jumper and scoring off the dribble is a problem for defenders. On the flip, she can defend in the interior or baseline to baseline plus she rebounds on both ends and plays the passing lane</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["678714"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-666aba5347d34"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jennings "set it off" the last time I saw her during the last viewing period and her being "long and athletic" which is the base as well as standing over "the magic number" was always a formula for the next-level yet her intangibles kept adding up as she evolved from a back to the basket player to one that go coast to coast after rebounding to score or dish. Her seeing the floor in the set is solid, so is her midrange pull-up jumper yet she can score off the dribble and around the basket plus her interior defense is strong</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["307746"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-666aba5347d7a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Franklin will probably make another huge jump but one thing is for certain, she's hard to defend because she has a nice first step to attack the basket off the dribble and finish after contact plus her mid to long-range is a definte threat, so is her stop and pop jumper in transition </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["307761"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-666aba5347ddc"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Edwards was "CLUTCH" during the playoffs scoring however she wanted and that has transitioned over to the CLUB season where I caught her recently. Her court vision stood out boith in the set as well as in transition but seeing her create her shot as well as create spacing to to drop the mid to long range jumper was very nice, so was her attacking and finishing after contact </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["594025"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-666aba5347e1d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Warden was playing in the paint when I caught her in the 6th grade and even then, I knew she was a #D1Lock yet over the years, she put in the work to be able to move to the shooting guard position and to say she has the ability to take games over offensively would be an understatement. Yes, her mid to long range is nice, as is her scoring off the dribble but her body control is like watching her defy gravity at times, and that enables her to finish after contact</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["307756"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-666aba5347e6e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jennerson's first name was given to me incorrectly years ago by a parent which is why I constantly ask for non-erroneous rosters but alas, her name was not AMANDA and when I caught back up with her, she gave me a flashback of what I saw pre-high school. Her poise under pressure and both handling the ball and delivering in the clutch was always there, it's just better and so is her court vision and defense </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
